Search Mask

Search Mask of the DNA Module

The search mask is divided in two parts: specimen/voucher data and DNA data. It is designed quite similar to the Input Mask with some additions:

1. You can search for a customer who has requested samples
2. You can search for a specific data creator, which is important for managers and admins

All other fields should be self-explained or the notes given at Input DNA Data might help you.

Please don't use asterisk (*) for your search! If search field is described as (*xy*) or (xy*) the Tool will automatically use like operators. If not, suggestion and drop down lists will help you. Please note that you can only search for specimen data that are already connected to one of your samples! If you want to search the Specimen Tool you have to switch to the Specimen Tool!

Detailed record view

Single record view

The display of a single record is designed similar to the web portal with different background colors. It is divided into three parts: DNA data, specimen data, background information about the record.

In this view the specimen data are coming live from the original provider! Only if provider is not available cache data will be displayed.

On bottom you find information about other DNA samples in your database connected to this voucher and who has the record created and updated at what time.

If no other user is editing this record at the same time you see the "Edit Dataset" button. Otherwise there is a note that the record can't be edited right now.
